Resonate Festival Day 3: Zodiac

  • 1050 W Morse Blvd Winter Park, FL 32789

Dying to get away from his despised Salzburg employer, Mozart was on a job-hunting trip when he composed his 31st Symphony, for the Paris Orchestra (which happened to have a great clarinet section). He loved the instrument and—spoiler alert—this is his first symphony to use clarinets. Now, turn your eyes heavenward for illuminating impressions of musicians’ respective star signs by the legendary pianist/composer Mary Lou Williams. She masterfully combines jazz and classical idioms to depict the personalities of Ben Webster and Billie Holiday in “Aries”; Duke Ellington in “Taurus”; Art Tatum in “Libra”; Eartha Kitt in “Aquarius,” and more!

  • Time Out after the orchestra concerts to mix, mingle, sip, and chat with friends old and new (bar service available). Then, return back for some fantastic music of diverse “flavors”: from a symphony, a double concerto, and Irish folk music to compositions for violin, clarinet, and Aaron Diehl’s jazz trio
